5. The Term 3 Bluearth Lesson
For contracted Bluearth Active Schools only
Our coaches while disappointed they cannot give face to face sessions are very excited about the online presence we are creating. It represents a new chapter of investment for us into our youth and we can’t wait to pass it on to schools.
Bluearth has never been more critical in reaching out to every child’s innate desire and need to move.
